Demon Keeper

I heard that Demon Keeper is a Nemesis Automaton that seeks out and steals the bacon of unsuspecting Championites.

And you know I find its hard for guys that would be my type seem to have a hard time taking the initiative to actually ask girls like us out. They are sadly too shy. And then that sticks us with the guys who are pompous [censored] and we end up getting hurt and being damaged goods for the good guys out there who will truly treat us well. And then when guys that are good for us come around we have a hard time letting down our guard.

[/ QUOTE ]

So if the guy's shyness is the root of the whole problem, why don't the girls make the first move? It can't all be the guy's fault.

On topic:
Cobalt is actually roleplaying 23/7. His real favorite color is red.

Wait, Shin, we need to find productive ways to keep this thread going, such as:

"I heard it wasn't really Cobalt at the computer all day for his birthday; in fact the real Cobalt was ____________" (fill in the blank with a word, sentence, or a whole story)

[/ QUOTE ]

In fact the real Cobalt was leading a boy scout troop.

"Mr. Azurean, that's thirty-seven merit badges today already. Can we PLEASE have lunch now? We're all hungry! Maybe just a juicebox?"

*Cobalt Sighs* "Very well, young scout. Sip 'em if you got 'em. But then get ready to count more butterflies and fish species."

"Mr. Azurean, I can't find the one you were talking about. I don't think there's a Crey Fish badge that we can get."

*Cobalt grins* "Oh, it's in there. It's in there, and we're gonna get it. If we're lucky we'll see the pirate ghost ship."

*All the kids light up* "Pirate Ghost Ship? Allright!"

*Cobalt reaches into his large backpack, starts pulling out a cache of VERY sharp axes* "Here are your temp powers. I trust no one took sands of Mu."

"What?"

"Anyways."

"Anyways what?"

"Shutup. I've never been a fan of AR, but I hot-glued this supersoaker full of napalm to an M-4. Does anyone have a lighter?"

I'll give you a hint: It begins with the letter "Z" and ends with "job."

Psst, BA...I need a Kamikaze wingman. You free tonight?

Son of a [censored]...Pretend that the post above was made by me. GATT never logs off the damn forum.

I laugh when someone says "lol get over it nerds" in this thread, because they don't get it. Nobody wants to murder this guy, we don't wanna flex our e-pecs and go over there and threaten to beat him up at a gas station in Sac-town, and we aren't afraid of furry things because he griefed people.

[/ QUOTE ]

Though I was never greifed by Twixt, I am afraid of furries. Can I sue somebody?

[/ QUOTE ]

I met a guy at my freshman orientation that was like: "Oh, by the way, I'm a furry." Needless to say, I scooted away from him.

You defeated Demon Keeper!
You received a Belated Happy Birthday.

Edit: Eh, it doesn't look so good with that green and that yellow, but you get the idea.

I've never heard of Twixt until now, but I like how he is "disturbed" and "frightened" by death threats over PvP and then procedes to release an article that gives out his name and general location.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEMON KEEPER!

P.S. I told you that you were a clone o' me.

[/ QUOTE ]

Thats a very SCARY thought!

[/ QUOTE ]

No worries. I'm not old and grouchy like Cobalt...yet.

Thanks everyone.

Level 18 Handsome Man looking for AE team. I has healz.

What an odd coincidence. Happy birthday, blue boy.

I find it hard to believe that you'd lose sleep over anything posted in a forum.

It's a non sequitur argument you have there, Cobalt. That is, I am a college freshman, but it does not follow that I am young.

[/ QUOTE ]

That may be, but I'd say the fact that Cobalt is cantankerous in nature adds about 30 years or so onto his actual age, causing him to be certifiably 'older and crankier'.

[/ QUOTE ]

Fair enough. But what about this: I went back in time using Ouroboros and cloned a blue version of myself? Would that make me older?

An aside: Hope this doesn't mean I'll be like Cobalt when I get old and cranky. Blue isn't my favorite color, to say the least. Sorry, Cobalt.

Yaaaaay....cought my misspelled word!

This amuses me.

I'd be interested in this. Think I'll roll either Earth/Fire or Mind/Fire. Haven't decided yet. Global: @Demon Keeper

but now the secondaries suck so much endurance that youre constantly resting while the rest of the group moves on

[/ QUOTE ]

Solution: Slot more endurance reduction.

How do you know how old I am? I'm being stalked by my blue doppleganger.

I just looked...Cobalt and I have very similar results. Could he be my blue doppleganger?

Bwuh?

[ QUOTE ]
From what I've been reading, the Strike Force is much more difficult than the Task Force. It also requires at least one Mastermind and one Stalker to complete.

[/ QUOTE ]

A Stalker/Mastermind are not required. I ran the SF with @The Denizen Monday morning with no Stalker or Mastermind. Granted, the final battle took 20+ minutes, but we finished.

Disorder | Rating
Paranoid: Low
Schizoid: Very High
Schizotypal: Moderate

I read the thing for schizoid...I don't think I'm a schizoid...Is it a noun? I have four of the six traits, but the paragraph given doesn't really describe me...I'm like, a half-schizoid. Schizoid-schism? Cool.

Some of my other results are contradictory. For example: "Unresponsive to praise or criticism" and "Requires excessive praise and admiration."

This isn't astrophysics. Someone who fell upon financial hardship but is trying their hardest to get back on their footing is deserving of charity. Someone who fell upon financial hardship but sits on their a** collecting unemployment for 6 months without bothering to seriously look for a job does not deserve it. Is that clear enough?

[/ QUOTE ]

No. If I give a man money, I expect something in return. The man sitting on his [censored] can rot. Just because a man "is trying his hardest to get back on his feet" doesn't mean I should have to risk my money helping him. "Trying" doesn't mean he deserves my money.

[ QUOTE ]
Translate that to in-game. Lowbies who looks to squeeze their way into a 52-54 AE team and cries when no one invites them is not deserving of charity. Lowbies who invite a few 50's into their farm team hoping that they'll do all the work is not deserving of charity. Not when they could've put in some effort and do some AE missions closer to their level instead of wasting time trying to get other people to power level them for free.

[/ QUOTE ]

I never meant to imply that you should invite these people to your teams, I meant to say that you should not try to pass said invitations off as an act of charity. They aren't. It is a business-like trade. They offer you their time and presence in return for your work. Whether or not their time/presence is worth enough is up to you.

[ QUOTE ]
Edit: And yes, you are very much losing something when you have a team full of non-contributers. Time is the first thing that comes to mind. You're simply not going to clear the mission efficiently with only a fraction of the potential damage output. There are also obvious things that you lose such as exp and infamy. Just like in non-AE missions, those scale based on number of people in team. In a mission full of 8 men spawns but only 4 people doing all the work, you'll get far higher share of rewards per kill if you ditch the other 4 deadbeats.

[/ QUOTE ]

True, a team full of useless bodies will go slower than a team full of competent and able players. Not true, however, is that you are losing time. If you are the capable farmer that you claim to be, the larger spawns in every mission should still be dropping quite quickly. Each successive run might take longer, but you will be killing more enemies in each run. With fewer people, you do get more influence/infamy/XP per kill, but also fewer kills.

Don't misunderstand me. I agree that having incapable/incompetent players on a team is a downer. I'm not advocating free powerleveling for any stranger you meet. I just disagree with some of your diction and logic.

[ QUOTE ]
Still, as a general rule of thumb, I don't dish out charity to those who do not need or deserve it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Sorry, but this bugs me. How exactly does one *deserve* charity? Charity is the act of giving something to someone at the cost of the giver. How, exactly, are you losing anything by having another character--even if they contribute nothing at all--on your team for a MA farm? If anything, you are gaining from their presence, by virtue of having more enemies to defeat.

Words have an exact meaning, I would learn them.

Hm...Don't think I've made on post on this, and I'm too lazy to check, so here goes:
I'm a new highschool graduate/college freshman. I start my first year this Fall, and I'm planning to transfer to Georgia Tech this coming Spring or the following Fall. I was born in Florida, but have been living in northwest Georgia for a little more than sixteen years. When I was eleven I was hiking in the Appalachian mountains when I spotted a gigantic grizzly bear to whom, upon sighting, I said "What're you doing in the Appalachians, ya' dumb goose?" He charged me and we wrestled hardkoar. I won. Turns out, he was the King of Bears. Now, I'm the King of Bears. Other than that, my life is pretty uneventful. I live in a very small town called Plainville with a booming population of, at last check, 234 people. I've been playing City of Heroes since August '04 and don't plan on quitting until they shut the servers down. My older brother also plays, some might know him as @GATTACA or Tubs McGee.

I'm too absorbed in myself to let any random stranger see my face on the interwebz, so I won't be posting a picture...Well, that's just about it.
